SUMMARY: We (Fish and Wildlife 

Service) will ask the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

approve the information collection (IC) 

described below. As required by the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and 

as part of our continuing efforts to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burden, we invite the general public and 

other Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on this IC, 

which is scheduled to expire on May 31, 

2007. We may not conduct or sponsor 

and a person is not required to respond 

to a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

Lake Umbagog National Wildlife 

Refuge contains significant natural and 

recreational resources. We estimate that 

the area has over 50,000 visits per year, 

which can result in significant resource 

and social impacts. 

In 2006, we began a research study to 

gather information to help support 

application of visitor carrying capacity 

at the refuge. We conducted a survey of 

visitors to the refuge to determine 

relevant indicators of quality for the 

visitor experience. Indicators of quality 

are measurable, manageable variables 

that reflect the essence or meaning of 

management objectives. OMB approved 

this collection of information and 

assigned control number 1018–0132, 

which expires May 31, 2007. 

We plan to ask OMB to renew this 

information collection to include phase 

2 of this study. During phase 2, we 

propose to survey visitors and nearby 

landowners to identify standards of 

quality for relevant indicator variables 

and determine attitudes toward 

management actions that we might use 

to ensure that the standards of quality 

are maintained. We will conduct two 

separate surveys. One survey will 

include a sample of visitors to Lake 

Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge and 

the second survey will include private 

landowners adjacent to the refuge. We 

will collect the same information in 

both surveys; however, we will ask 

adjacent landowners for additional 

information about their frequency of use 

of the refuge.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

We have contracted with Management 

Systems International to perform an 

independent evaluation of the National 

Wildlife Refuge System (NWRS). 

Although the NWRS has existed for 

more than 100 years, it has never 

undergone an independent evaluation of 

its overall effectiveness in achieving its 

conservation mission. We are now 

seeking such an evaluation to identify 

program strengths and weaknesses, as 

well as gaps in performance 

information. Such evaluations are an 

important element of the OMB Program 

Assessment Rating Tool (PART) 

assessments, and this evaluation will 

satisfy the PART requirements. The 

evaluation includes two data collection 

components involving the public: 

(1) An online survey of partners (e.g., 

volunteer groups, local and national 

conservation organizations, hunting and 

fishing groups, and other civic 

organizations). 

(2) Individual and small group 

interviews of State fish and game 

officials and partners. 

The perspective and observations of 

NWRS partners and State fish and game 

officials are critical to fully understand 

the issues and questions that the 

independent evaluation will explore. 

During 2007, we plan to interview 40 

State fish and wildlife officials and 110 

individuals from partner organizations. 

The small number of individuals 

interviewed and the nature of the 

interview process do not allow for 

generalization of interview findings to
